ڈپٹی کا کہنا ہے کہ بینک آف کینیڈا سی بی ڈی سی بٹ کوائن سے ماحولیات کے لئے کم نقصان دہ ہوگا

Timothy Lane, deputy governor of the Bank of Canada, has said that any digital currency the bank would offer down the road will be of less harm to the environment than بٹ کوائن. 

A hot topic lately for cryptocurrencies has been the possible negative effect the mining and trading of digital assets are having on the environment. In an attempt to combat this growing issue, the Bank of Canada (BoC) has begun looking into the environmental impact of digital currency as part of its project to create its own central bank digital currency (CBDC). 

کریپٹو کارنسیس پر عوام کا اعتماد

Timothy Lane, the deputy governor of the Bank of Canada, حال ہی میں بات کی at a panel hosted by the Canadian Chamber of Commerce about the research phase of the project. Lane stated that the energy-intensive process is paramount in how much the public trusts cryptocurrencies. He believes the BoC would not need to start from the ground up, however, as the citizens of Canada already trust their national bank. 

لین نے اپنی تقریر کے دوران کہا ، "واضح طور پر ، جو کچھ ہم پیش کر رہے ہیں اس میں عوام کا اعتماد بہت زیادہ ہے ، اور اسی طرح جب ہم مرکزی بینک ڈیجیٹل کرنسی کے بارے میں سوچتے ہیں تو ، یہ اعتماد ایک اہم چیز ہے جسے ہم میز پر لاتے ہیں۔" "یقینا ، اس کا مطلب یہ ہے کہ ہمیں کان کنی ٹیکنالوجیز کے ماحولیاتی ، بہت فضول طریقوں پر انحصار کرنے کی ضرورت نہیں ہے جو ہم نے کریپٹو کرنسیوں کے ساتھ دیکھی ہیں۔"

ابھی کسی سی بی ڈی سی کی ضرورت نہیں ہے؟

Lane’s comments show that Canada is serious about its desire to launch a CBDC sooner rather than later. In October 2020, Chief of the BoC Tiff Macklem کہ نے کہا کہ there is no “pressing need for a CBDC right now.” While that does seem to be the case, Macklem also stated his desire not to be beaten to the punch by other countries. “If another country has [a CBDC] and we don’t, that could certainly create some problems.”

As with many modern industries on the rise, such as smartphones and hybrid cars, the environmental effects of cryptocurrencies have fallen under شدید جانچ حالیہ مہینوں میں.

There is a good reason for this, considering that the mining of bitcoin (BTC) along accounts for more توانائی کا استعمال than some first-world countries use on an annual basis. The issue surrounding crypto mining is directly related to the hardware involved in solving complex mathematics required for the process.
